Characterization of the gene for apolipoprotein E 5 - Frankfurt ( Gln 81 - > Lys , Cys 112 - > Arg ) by polymerase chain reaction , restriction isotyping , and temperature gradient gel
The human apoE gene (APOE, GenBank accession AF261279) shows a common polymorphism, with the three ɛ2, ɛ3 and ɛ4 alleles resulting from the haplotypes of two C→T SNPs. However, whereas the three common T‐T, T‐C and C‐C haplotypes corresponding to the ɛ2, ɛ3 and ɛ4 alleles are well known, the last C‐T haplotype (GenBank accession AY077451), encoding a fourth apoE allele, has rarely been reported. We detected this fourth allele in a Caucasian patient with motor neuron disease (MND). According to the literature we refer to this allele as ɛ3r. Although several explanations may be proposed for its formation, the existence of this fourth allele is consistent with the evolutionary hypothesis generally accepted for the apoE alleles. The rarity and physiological role of ɛ3r remains to be explained, and requires further investigation.
